Hi! Love the theme and was thinking about purchasing. However, wondering if there is a password protected gallery option? Is there a demo for this? Thx!

Hi, thanks for taking an interest in the theme!

Yes the theme supports password protected galleries. Sorry no demo for this.

Hi there,

Thanks for your support so far. There is another issue that I’ve found.

For my primary navigation I’m using the portfolio with no margins which looks great. For the mobile navigation I’m using the portfolio with margins so that the titles are displayed under the thumbnails when viewed on a mobile phone (an iPhone in this case).

But when I view the portfolio on my iphone, the thumbnails are not consistent sizes. Some are very small, others are larger. It seems to be related to long the portfolio titles are as the images stretch to the width of the title text.

The weird thing is, sometimes on the odd occasion it does load correctly. But most of the time it does not. Any ideas about how to fix this?

Hi, sorry I don’t have a quick CSS for what you have described.

No problem. Is there any advice you can offer to point me in the right direction? Is it perhaps worth exploring for future versions of the theme? Would really complete the theme if the footer went to the bottom when viewed on a mobile ;)

We would suggest to hire a developer to help you with this modification.

Is there any way to arrange all image center on slider when switch the post type to gallery?

Hi!

  1. We would suggest you to use images with the same dimensions.
  2. I don’t know what you are doing wrong because you turned off right click.

please check again, I already turn on the right click

it’s fine, i sort it out at the moment. thx

Is there a way to do the following?

1. Page 1 – My static page = Photos with “Full Frame with Slider” with Autoplay ON.

2. Page 2 – Photos with “Slider”. However, it seems to inheret the Autoplay global setting. Is there a way to turn selectively turn Autoplay off e.g. for this page?

thanks much!

Thanks much!

Your Fix Can you tell me what you did to fix the problem so I don’t inadvertently “unfix it”. :) .

An update should be approved tomorrow so you can always download the latest version.

Thanks!

do you have a video posted anywhere explaining step by step how to upload portfolio and galleries?

Hi, no we don’t have such videos.

Hello,

Lovely theme! I’m wondering if you provide the psd files?

Hello, sorry no PSD files included.

Hello !

Can I somehow add a facebook like button to the main menu panel ? (On the top of the “All rights reserved” text box). I tried it with some different plugins but it didn’t worked.

My site is ready, I’m very happy with this theme and I need only this one important detail to lunch it, so your help will be very welcomed !

thank you in advance !

Add it before line 225.

Hi again.

I don’t want to waste your time but I really need your help if it’s possible of course.

We tried many different ways to add like button to the page but it didn’t worked. It will be very kind from you if you can help me to add this button, when you will have a time for it off course. If you can send me a code which I must add before line 225, or I can simply give you an address and password of my site and you can add it there. Maybe it’s a strange request, but I really need your help.

Thank you in advance !

Hi, we would suggest to hire a developer to help you with this modification.

Hi I really love this them. Great Template! I having some issues connecting the pages to the portfolios then with the galleries. I tried connecting them with the categories but its not working. Should I place the images in galleries then create an image with the link to the gallery inside the image?? Thanks

Perhaps “Portfolio Custom URL” would be helpful.

Thanks.. do you have to put a custom url every time you want a portfolio to connect to gallery?

Hi, you can use gallery custom post type instead.

Hi, how do you get rid of the line that appears on all blank pages? http://redfieldmedia.co.uk/examples/line.png

Cheers

Could tell me how to make a page like this http://demo.megathe.me/skylab/about-personal/ without using the default template?

Hi, use Full Width page template.

Thanks

Hi! Thanks for a great template.

I just need one more fix to get my portfolio complete.

How to I remove the loading text that shows up then I click on any of my images. It doesnt look good and is not necessary on my portfolio.

Regards, Christoffer

Perhaps it would be better to use loading animated icon instead of text?

I did notice another thing, there is a problem with your Google Analytics code. You will need to place it in Appearance > Theme Options > General in “Tracking Code” box.

Great photos by the way! Can we use a link to your site and a screenshot of your site in our them’s description please?

That would look much better! Can you point me in the direction where to fix that?

Thank you! I was told to put it on every page I wanted tracking on but I will do as you describes!

I’m happy you like it and you are more then welcome to link it back! I will add the last things such as short codes for LinkedIn and FB on Saturday.

Thanks for the help and have a great weekend.

Regards, Christoffer

  1. Sure, navigate to Appearance > Theme Options > Style and add these lines of code to custom CSS block:
    .mfp-preloader {
    background: url(images/preloader.gif) center center no-repeat;
    text-indent: -9999em;
    }
    
    .
  2. Don’t worry, it will be on every page.
  3. Great, thanks!
Hi I know a little english, I bought sklab’?. Become active, but could not get the video blog. Do you have a video on how to use the theme or Can you help me. http://www.hasanalpan.com/

Hi, thank you for the purchasing!

No, no videos but yes we can help you.

one more thing, how to change the google maps on contact page?

Navigate to Appearance > Theme Options > Contact Infos where you can change your address.

Hi, First I want to thank you for this great theme. There are some questions I want to ask:

1- How can I change gallery category name where it says “all”. I want to change it because my site is not for English speaking visitors.

2- Is it possible to add more social media links? Like deviantart.com?

3- I want to use full width slider for my galleries. It looks awesome. But I face a problem here. As you know photography doesn’t contain only horizontal photos. There are vertical photos in everybody’s portfolio. Full width slider doesn’t show vertical photos by fitting it into the page, but instead it just zooms in the middle of the photo (or the top of photo if it is selected in the options) which is not good for showcasing your vertical photos. I am wondering when will you be able to fix this problem? Next update? Or can you suggest a code fix for this issue?

4- I am using Opera browser. And when I switch between gallery categories sometimes the thumbnails don’t align as they were in the beginning when I select “all”. I am using 4 colomn style and when I switch back to all, the thumbnails only fill 1st and 3rd colomns. 2nd and 3th colomns stay empty/black. Although it works fine on Chrome.

5- I couldn’t make the “one_half” code to work on my contact page. What I am trying to do is, putting some text on left side and putting the contact form on the right side. How can I make it work? The code I am using:

[one_half] Lorem ipsum text [/one_half] [one_half last=”true”] [contact-form-7 id="136" title="Contact form 1"][/one_half]

Thanks for the answers.

My site: http://www.cagdasyoldas.com (Still WIP)

Looks like “Full Width” page template helps.

Weird. Because I tried Full Width and it didn’t help.

Thanks again btw

Hello, I am close to buy this magnifique theme but : is it possible to insert the caption for all the picture in all the galleries and how ? Thanks for your answer.

i already buy this theme, and download the demo. however, i can not change the style to black. what must i do?

I Try edit the black.css copy the whole thing and paste onto the custom css and nothing’s happening. on your demo, there is a menu that contain styles that I can choose like black, cartographer, dark geometric and so on, and it just work fine on your live-view. but when I click on my own site, it does not do anything. what to do?

nevermind. I just have to wait it applied

  1. Navigate to Appearance > Theme Options > Style where you can choose a background color for your site.
  2. This menu is for demonstration purposes only and of course it won’t be working on your site.

Hi,

I have noticed that in my Full width gallery, the portrait images have zoomed in to a landscape size and I cannot see the actual portrait image correctly. How can I fix this.?

http://rhyeeswedes.com/wp/blog/gallery/food/

Hi, it may well be possible with some modification but it’s not something which is available out of the box I’m afraid.

1. Will you be looking to fix this in a coming update.? 2. Can you please tell me what plugin is used to create the full screen image.?

Thank you

  1. It’s not a bug actually. This page not for portrait (vertical) size images. Use this page instead http://demo.megathe.me/skylab/super-smooth-slider/
  2. It’s not a WordPress plugin.

hi iam lost. do you have some tutorials or something. i want my main page to look like the one in the picture (little boxes that light with color and the title) but i can’t find the way. also the slider function doesn’t work, cause it didnt show the pictures. And also i don’t know how to link the portfolio to the main page. I need help

Hi, thank you for the purchasing!

Please read the documentation that comes with the theme, any common questions can be answered within the documentation.

You will need to download not Installable WordPress file but Main File(s) where you can find the documentation.

Kind regards.

1) it’s possible in fullscreen slider have pics and videos? 2) customize menu accordion? thankyou!

Hi, thanks for taking an interest in the theme!

  1. The slider supports only images.
  2. You can do that via custom CSS block only.

1. a single video in homepage? many thanks

Sorry didn’t quite understand your question. Please be more specific.

Hi, by importing demo data I receive following comment 413 Request Entity Too Large

What is wrong? Hope to hear from you…

Thank you, Sven

Hi, thank you for the purchasing!

Please contact your hosting company to help you with this problem.

Hi,

I did not buy your theme (yet) but have two questions; The roll over color of the portfolio items, can this be set manually or does this go randomly? I want to give every category it’s own roll over color (no double categories on 1 item). And, is it possible to add subcategories to the portfolio categories?

Hope to hear from you.

David

Hi!

  1. You can choose a value for title highlight color via color picker.
  2. It’s not possible I’am afraid.
